We do the same, I love being able to give my family/friends fresh eggs. We average about a dozen and a half eggs a week so we really couldnt sell them even if we wanted to.
I have 7 hens right now and they are just barely 7 months. We have decided that we are going to keep our girls as they are until they die of old age. It may sound a little weird but I have them more for the pet side of the scale rather than the egg layer side. Its great getting fresh eggs...
